By the late 80’s, GG Allin’s music has become obsessed with murder, necrophilia, sex, drugs, and et cetera anti-social themes. His voice has become a heavily distorted yell, making his vocals sound like a 60 year smoker yelling. The recording quality has decreased to the point that some songs …

I think that Howl is a very strong album. This is an album, which has a very high emphasis on songs. By that I mean that, with many artists, they would have 10 or 15 songs on an album, and all the songs would sound very similar to each …

Horseshoes And Handgrenades is a song by Green Day which appears on their most recent studio effort, 21st Century Breakdown.
